I never saw TMac played a game like Kobe did in game 5. Kobe smelled blood and he'll kill you all by himself. Tmac had similar opportunity last year and he couldn't prove himself in game 7.
I think people have been hypnotized into believing that all of our players are great hustle/defensive players. Shane is great but most of our greatness is about team defense. Scola is really the only role player on our team that is good at creating his own shots. So we basically have 3 guys who can consistently get buckets (wheres the smiley face for puking).
Totally agree. This team has been perfect defensivly past several years but... As we saw offense has been our biggest problem in the playoffs, pathetic offense. We can't put everything on Tracy, Yao. We gotta find a way to play consistant offensivly, we need to have people who can score, create shoots. Farmar and Vujacic are great exampler. Neither of them is great but they come off the bench and give you that offense, several 3s, etc. That's what we need. OFFENSE, especially under Adelman.
